6 UPRN - Unique spatial ID code for every real world object Allocation of school places Connection of utility services Delivery of social care Register to vote Streetworks UPRN Emergency situations Delivery of packages Payment of taxes Quotation for insurance Collection of waste 6

7 Unique Consistent Reference -Linking all government information Health records Flood plain Land ownership Utility supply/smart meters Topography Height of building? Floor levels? Crime, education, vulnerable persons 7

9 Tell Us Once- UK Department for Works and Pensions Over 10 years, $400 m in savings is predicted based on evidencebased pathfinders and trials. $100 m of savings for families over the next 10 years, resulting from the money saved on fuel or parking charges. 9

10 Coordination of utility roadworks 10

11 Resilience Mapping Everyone seeing the same information at the same time Mobile on the ground UK COBRA All responders Gold Command In vehicle 11

12 Savings made UK public sector using spatial data Gloucestershir e County Council saves $3m on tendered bus services East Riding of Yorkshire saves $1.5m on school transport Harrow Council s waste project saves $4.8m over 10 years Automated bus pass allocation project saves Liverpool $75k The Suffolk Waste Partnership saves St. Edmundsbury $27k North Somerset District Council saves $1m on school transport Lee Valley Regional Park Authority saves $150k on grounds maintenanc e From 2002, London Borough of Sutton saves $70k yearly on SEN transport 12

13 OS Net- National CORS Network for Great Britain 13

14 OS NET data supports a wide range of business activity and academic research Weather models Highways accident surveying Coastal monitoring & engineering Geology Integrated systems Long-term regional vertical land movement Meteorology & atmospheric studies Environmental monitoring, flood risk Wildlife & biodiversity Space studies (e.g. interferometry & altimetry) 14

15 Supporting key Infrastructure- High Speed 2 rail 15

16 Economic Benefits of Spatially Connected Government Ordnance Survey data underpins $113bn of Great Britain s economy Source- OXERA For every $1 spent on address and street spatial data $4 is saved Source-Geoplace Across the 15 most commonly built applications using data from the UK single data framework, research shows that UK local authorities, police forces and fire services are already saving over $187 million every year If a majority (75%+) of local authorities and emergency services were to implement just these 15 most popular applications, savings would rise to over $0.7 billion each year. Source- Mindmetre to 0.6 GDP growth in UK 16

17 Key benefits of spatially connected government Easy exchange of information and open data between organisations and users through single location reference Underpins innovation Best evidence for best policy creation and optimised (smart) front line public services Easier interaction with citizens- better public services and happier citizens Saves money, time and the environment 17
